  Methods Results Discussion Peptide therapeutics represents a unique class of biopharmaceuticals that continues to evolve in drug discovery and development. We and others have been particularly interested in bioengineering innovative pGC-A and/or pGC-B peptide activators. This has been succe

  In experiments using D22 to displace binding of specific high-affinity radioligands for DAT, NET, and SERT in mouse ck1 inhibitor tissue, we observed a ranking with D22 displacement efficiency in the order of DAT > SERT > NET (IC50 values being ~ 11 (DAT), 26 (SERT), and 101 (NET) µM; Fig. 1, Fig.

  2022-08-17

  

  Glial cells have emerged as important protagonists of the central nervous system (CNS) physiology (Chen and Swanson, 2003; Kettenmann and Verkhratsky, 2008; Parpura and Verkhratsky, 2012). As widely described in the literature, astrocytes regulate glutamatergic synapses by clearance of glutamate in

  2022-08-17

  

  Glutamate activates cationic glutamate-gated channels (i.e. ionotropic glutamate receptors) that mediate the fast excitatory actions of glutamate. It also activate G protein-coupled receptors, named metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) (Pin and Bettler, 2016). The eight subtypes of mGluRs are k

  2022-08-17

  

  Congenital Gcgr mice exhibit increased hepatic Fgf21 expression and circulating FGF21 levels. Previous studies by other investigators demonstrated that neutralization of circulating FGF21 with specific ZSTK474 impairs glucose control in these mice [6]. In addition, the FGF21 analog LY2405319 lowers

  Here, we investigated on epigenetic regulatory mechanisms of ALX/FPR2 expression. Epigenetic changes, that include phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation and ubiquitination of DNA and histone proteins, occur in a variety of diseases [21] and are being recognized as key targets for personalized me

  Previous studies have shown that ox-LDL-induced hepatic sinus dysfunction is the result of multiple pathways, multi-factorial regulation, and in the present study, we reported for the first time that ox-LDL regulates the basement membrane protein VN through the integrin αvβ5 pathway under high gluco

• PKC does not however directly stimulate secretion

  2022-08-16

  

  PKC does not, however, directly stimulate secretion by initiating calcium influx into the cell [51]. Work from multiple groups measuring calcium currents has shown that PMA alone or coupled with glucose does not modulate intracellular calcium influx [34], [51], [52], [53]. Instead of contributing to

  2022-08-15

  

  A similar symbiotic relationship has been reported in the brain, where increased gradients of lactate secreted by astrocytes enables neurons to import and use this nutrient, a process referred to the ‘neuron–astrocyte lactate shuttle’ [16]. Similarly, lactate-based metabolic coupling established by

  2022-08-15

  

  For several years, CXCL17 had been classified as an orphan chemokine, until Maravillas-Montero et al. claimed that orphan G-coupled protein receptor GPR35 is the receptor of CXCL17 [15], [16]. However, no following research has been produced to further explore the function of the CXCL17-CXCR8 (GPR3

  Among prostaglandins (PG), PGD2 remained the most elusive species for a long time and was initially regarded as having negligible biological activity [1]. In 1974 its inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation was discovered by Smith et al. [2] and Mills & McFarlain [3], and both pressor and depresso

  Discrepancies in the reported results and conclusions from different groups regarding studies in ghrelin−/− and ghsr−/− mice are likely explained by the mixed background of the mutant mice used in the different studies [35]; although in the case of mice exposed to HFD, exposure to a HFD immediately

  In this study it was demonstrated that also in mice chronically exposed to CS, lung inflammation persists after SC and is associated with a progressive alveolar loss and remodeling of respiratory tract, characterized by the onset of bronchial and bronchiolar GCM and peribronchiolar fibrosis.
